"Developed in Russia, the new software is known as CyberLover and has been uncovered by security vendor PC Tools.
CyberLover can be found in chat-rooms and dating sites trying to lure victims into sharing their identity or visiting Web sites with malicious content.
According to its creators, CyberLover can establish a new relationship with up to 10 partners in just 30 minutes and its victims cannot distinguish it from a human being.
PC Tools is concerned about the program's ability to mimic human behaviour during online interactions and urges Internet users to beware of this new breed of software that can easily be used for malicious purposes."
